Response Message

Table 1 Response parameter

Parameter

Type

Description

subnet

Object

Specifies the subnet list. For details, see Table 2.
Table 2 subnet objects

Attribute

Type

Description

id

String

Specifies the subnet ID.

This parameter is not mandatory when you query subnets.

name

String

Specifies the subnet name.

ip_version

Integer

Specifies the IP address version.

Only IPv4 address is supported.

ipv6_address_mode

String

Specifies the IPv6 addressing mode.

ipv6_ra_mode

String

Specifies the IPv6 route broadcast mode.

network_id

String

Specifies the ID of the network to which the subnet belongs.

cidr

String

Specifies the CIDR format.

Only the addresses in the 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, and 192.168.0.0/16 network segments are supported. In addition, the subnet mask cannot be greater than 28.

gateway_ip

String

The gateway IP address cannot conflict with IP addresses configured for allocation_pools.

This attribute cannot be modified.

allocation_pools

Array of allocation_pool objects

Specifies the available IP address pool. For details, see Table 3.

Example: [ { "start": "10.0.0.2", "end": "10.0.0.251"} ]

The last three and the first IP addresses in each subnet are the ones reserved by the system. For example, in subnet 192.168.1.0/24, IP addresses 192.168.1.0, 192.168.1.253, 192.168.1.254, and 192.168.1.255 are reserved by the system. By default, the IP addresses reserved by the system are not in the IP address pool specified by allocation_pool.

When updating an IP address pool, the allocation_pool value can contain neither gateway nor broadcast IP addresses.

dns_nameservers

Array of strings

Specifies the DNS server address.

Example: "dns_nameservers": ["8.xx.xx.8","8.xx.xx.4"]

host_routes

Array of host_route objects

Specifies the static VM routes. For details, see Table 4.

Static routes are not supported, and entered information will be ignored.

tenant_id

String

Specifies the project ID.

enable_dhcp

Boolean

Specifies whether to enable the DHCP function. Value false indicates that the DHCP function is not enabled.

The value can only be true.

project_id

String

Specifies the project ID. For details about how to obtain a project ID, see Obtaining a Project ID.

created_at

String

Specifies the time (UTC) when the subnet is created.

Format: yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ss

String

Specifies the time (UTC) when the subnet is updated.

Format: yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ss
